Chapter 50 Huge Reward Order (please collect it!!)
On the day after the New Year, the release of a wanted order for a reward shocked the entire imperial capital!
[Reward Order: Anyone who captures the head of the Star-catching Thief will be rewarded with one hundred thousand taels of silver, and whoever captures him alive will be rewarded with three hundred thousand taels of silver! Anyone who provides valid clues can go to Prince Yu's Mansion to receive one hundred taels of silver! 】
At the same time, this wanted notice is also specially marked. Anyone can accept this bounty mission. Even if it is a wanted criminal, the Prince's Palace is willing to give a bounty without even embarrassing the other party.
Crazy! Completely crazy!
This was the first reaction of everyone in the entire imperial capital when they saw this wanted notice with a reward, and many people even suspected that it was a fake.
However, this wanted order is still being posted and spread, and has been distributed throughout the Maple Kingdom.
Li Qing, who was about to go up the mountain to hunt tigers, was a little stunned when he saw this wanted notice.
“What on earth did this Star-catching Thief do to anger King Yu to such an extent?”
When he first arrived in Shengtian, Li Qing only knew about Star-catching Thief. I walked away from a centuries-old wild ginseng that was requested by Prince Yu's Mansion.
However, at that time, Prince Yu's Mansion did not have any big reaction. They just acquiesced to let Quanshan Yaozhai go to arrest the other party and provide some help in secret.
Unexpectedly, within a few months, Prince Yu's Mansion actually put out hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to offer a reward for the Star-catching Thief. It seemed that they planned to deal with this mysterious thief at all costs.
All of a sudden, the whole Shengtian was boiling because of this.
Money is exciting, especially the amount of money that is so exaggerated and thrilling that it will definitely drive people crazy.
Many people are speculating that even the Star Reaching Thief himself may have the idea of surrendering himself to collect the bounty.
The cold weather in spring can't freeze the fiery hearts.
As soon as the huge wanted order was issued, Shengtian didn’t know how many people took action, with the intention of turning the imperial capital upside down.
These days, even Li Qing’s blacksmith shop has been visited by many individuals one after another, asking various questions.
From these signs, we can see how determined Prince Yu's Mansion is.
A few more days passed by in a blink of an eye. The enthusiasm for searching for the Star-catching Thief in the imperial capital had not subsided much, but there was another commotion in Prince Yu's Mansion.
At the Shengtian execution ground, a well-known landscape painter in the imperial capital was put on the guillotine and beheaded in public.
The old painter burst into tears, his eyes full of unwillingness.
"I have been wronged! I have been wronged!"
Unfortunately, the executioner has heard injustice so many times that his heart has long been cold and heartless.
Click the knife!
The painter's head rolled to the ground, and scarlet blood spread all over the floor.
The most important thing is that the government did not announce the crimes committed by this person, but kept them secret.
Suddenly, the mystery hovered over the entire imperial capital like clouds.
As the old painter was beheaded, Prince Yu’s Mansion once again dropped a piece of bombshell information.
Portrait of the Star-Reaching Thief!
This was simply a depth charge, shocking the entire imperial capital.
The star-catching thief who has been wanted for so long finally has his true face today.
You know, everyone didn’t even know what this guy looked like before. Even if they wanted to follow the traces of the Star-catching Thief, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky.
"It's interesting. I want to see what this star-catching thief looks like."
Even Li Qing couldn't help but become a little interested, wanting to see how he could win the reputation. What kind of person is this thief who has angered the palace so much?
On the street of Chiming Street, many neighbors gathered here, all of whom were interested in the portrait poster that had just been posted.
This portrait is obviously made by a famous artist. The lines are hard and realistic, and the painting is lifelike.
On the wanted poster, there is a very handsome man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and an uninhibited smile that always hangs at the corner of his mouth.
The first moment he saw this painting, Li Qing's eyes narrowed slightly. Looks familiar!
Soon, someone exclaimed.
"I've seen him! I've seen him!"
With a crash, the crowd dispersed, revealing an excited man. It can be seen from his appearance that this man He is a person who specializes in running around.
“I’ve seen this guy before in the tavern on the next street!”
Yes, it’s him.
Li Qing also confirmed that the man on the wanted order was the man who often drank in the tavern some time ago. He did not use a wine glass and liked to drink from the pot.
And he has seen this man more than once in the pub. It is certain that he is a drunkard.
"Hahaha! I went to the Prince's Mansion to receive the reward!" The man who recognized the wanted order rushed towards Shengtian Inner City with a big smile on his face.
Everyone looked at this man's back with envy. Just based on the clue that they had seen the Star-catching Thief, they could probably get fifty taels of silver.
Although Li Qing has also met the Star Reaching Thief, he has the mentality that doing more is worse than doing less, and he has no intention of fighting for this bit of silver.
He is not short of money, and even though he has been wanted for so long, the palace has not revealed what level of martial arts he is at.
If you are an internal energy master, or an internal energy master who is good at qinggong, it will be difficult to handle.
Unintentionally getting involved in the wanted order of the Star-catching Thief, before the warm spring arrived, Li Qing stayed in the blacksmith shop and began to refine a new armor for himself.
“It is best to have steel spikes on the armor, after all, it is to deal with tigers in the mountains.”
“In addition, it is best to bring a sharp weapon to hunt tigers. Using the Wushuang Hammer is too cumbersome and may not be effective.”
Yes, Li Qing has already begun preparations for the tiger hunt.
His martial arts progress has slowed down these days, and he really can't see the signs of entering the inner strength level.
In desperation, I had no choice but to take the idea of the tiger in Xiaocuiling.
Although he has a long lifespan, he can definitely withstand waiting and tempering slowly.
Under the influence of time, he will definitely be able to enter the level of inner strength.
However, Shengtian has become more and more chaotic recently due to the scandal of the Star-catching Thief. Masters from all over the world have gathered here, hoping to earn the huge bounty.
Originally, it was rare to see external strength masters except in major martial arts schools. In the past few days, Li Qingguang found more than one in the tavern.
"Take the tiger bones, brew the medicinal wine, wait until summer, and then brew the five poison wine."
"Well! Martial arts can be expected!"
That's it! While Li Qing was talking to himself with satisfaction, an unexpected visitor came outside the blacksmith shop.
"Li Qing, are you the blacksmith here?"
Several agents wearing the same clothes with standard long knives hanging from their waists walked in.
Seeing these people, his heart trembled slightly, and he subconsciously tightened his energy and blood, not wanting to expose his martial arts skills.
"It's me, gentlemen, what can I do?" Li Qing asked with a smile.
"Don't panic, we're just here to ask you a few questions." The detective said with a cold face.
